Looking out of my upstairs window in South Leicester 7am, could I believe my eyes, that looks like frost on next doors roof! Surely not! but taking the dog for his morning walkies over the back field it's a definite, the grass had frost on. Can't get up to the 'lotty until this evening to find out if this was just a localised phenomenon, hopefully not, but still 'frost in August!'
When I got up I had to shut all the windows and put a jumper on.
We had a night low of 5deg here in Surrey.
Fingers crossed it is just a blip, and we still have a bit of summer left.
We had a real keen frost here in South yorks this morning, took some dahlias and other tender stuff out. Beans don't look too happy .
I don't think I can remember a frost in Aug before .Can any one else?
Really odd weather this year..
We went up to the lotty at about 10oclock today & there was a definite grass frost :o. We're in Cheshire.
Very cold here last night. Went to lottie at 6:30 this morning not a frost luckily but pretty nippy. I could see my breathe when I went hrrr.
Unfortunately did not know it was coming, forgot to cover me pumpkin. Luckily it has a bale f straw keeping it warm.
thanks for flagging this up dig,I too thought it pretty frosty this morning,best get some mulch on
We were in our campervan near Hadrian's wall on Thursday night and it was blooming cold- certainly looked like there had been a frost on Friday morning.
Please, I know we didn't have a Spring and only two weeks of summer in July but, please, pretty please with sugar on top, can we have an effing autumn before winter?
